Johnny Fizzletop is the mcanest kind
Off little boy. His aged grandmother,
whose eyesight is very much impaired,
asked him to read the morning parcr
ont loud to her. Instead Of reading
right along. he skipped from one item
to another, thereby confusing the old
lady very much. He read;
Her majesty having listened at.

"W'h.a-t?" gasped Johnny's grand

THE IRISH COBBEpT.

a. short time ago the Pail Mall C1az-
cite contained a sketch of William
O'Brien, the fearless editor Of United
Ireland, who is now fighting the Or
ange beasts in Canada, and compared
that gentleman to William Cobbett.
The resemblance is striking in more re-
spects than one, although Mr.. O'Brien
is man of much more ability than his
English prototype. The following brief
sketch Of this famous Englishman may
not be uninteresting at this time.
William Cobbett, son of a small far
mer in Sussex, WAS born in 1862, and
enlisted as private soldier, when he
was about two-and-twenty years old.
He was sent with his regiment to Brit
ish North America; diligently edu-
Gated himself as an English scholar !;
was raised by his good conduct TO the
rank of sergeant-maior; obtained his
discharge with goodservice certifcate(
after seven years service returned to
England, and went to France to per-
feet himself in French; thence came to
the United States, where, writing under
the sobriquet of ''Peter Porcupine," he
got into hot water; he again returned
home and supported the Government

REVIVING IRISH INDUSTRIES,

1t is to be earnestly hoped that the at
tempt which several OF the Nationalist
leaders are making to revive the WOODEN
manufacturing industry in Ireland vii!
be crowned with success. The idea.
we believe. ORIGINATED with Mr.. Will
liam Redmond. AID met with so much
favor in The United States that MI.
DAvitt and M. parnell concluded to
force it to - successful issue, if possible.
A company has been formed to pro
mote the object. and the agent of the
company is now in this country. He
carries with him the following letter Of
introduction from MI Michael Davjtt
to the editor OF the Irish World:
ga pRI14 81, 1887.
MY DEAN SIR THE bearer, Mr.. Peter White,
of Dublin, has been comm ssione( to proceed to,
the United States and Canada in the interest Of
tho WOODEN industry. He is representing coul~
parry OF which am principal director, which has
for It's object the development OF Irish WOODEN
manufacture. Mr.. Parnell and all our prominent
national leaders are in hearty accord with the OBJ
iects Of the company.
Knowing that the United States imports ir,-
1nense quantities OF WOODEN goods every year from
Great Britain, we are anxious to obtain for our
Irish manufacturers fair share OF patronage and
support from the American people by offering
them WOODEN cloths as good and As cheap from
Irish mills as they now purchasing from those
Of England Scotland. In the name OF our COM
pcny, and i'll behalf Of the Irish people, + ask
from your influential journal that support Tor
this Irish industrial movement which it has SD
long and SO ably given to the cause Of ireland. T.
remain dear Sir, Yours respectfully,
MIOaAEl, DAv1rT.
It will be seen from the foregoing let
ter that all Mr.. Dayltt asks is encour-
agement, in a business way, to aid this
scheme, which we believe would be of
benefit to Ireland.
The Irish standard., 1887-05-21

in a daily paper called the Forcupine ;
changed that publication into Cobbett's
Weekly Register. in which he assailed
the Ministry, with much continuity and
force was prosecuted, and fined re-
peatedly, but most heavily for COM
ments on the illegal fogging of some
rnilitiamen at Ely, for which he had to
undergo two years Imprisonment, with
a fine of $1,000 sterling; continued his
Register, however, during his confne-
ment. and until what were called the
"Six Acts' were passed to check him
came back to America, whence his
Register, still published in London, was
duly supplied with "copy" until his
tiual return to England in 1919 !; sue
cessfully contested tie representation
of Coventry i'll 1920. and Of Preston, in
1925. He was tried in July. 1881. for
the publication of "a libel, with intent
to raise discomfort in the minds of the
laborers in husbandry, and to excite
them to acts OF violence; and to destroy
cornstacks. machinery and other prop
erty.'' He defended himself so ably
and boldly, that the jury declined agree
ing on verdict Of conviction and
thus allowed him victory over Lord
Grey's Ministry, who had prosecuted
him. In May, 1885, he was suddenly
attacked with a disease of the throat,
which eventuated in his death, on
June II, 1885, aged seventy-three Cob
bett, in person, was said to have resem~
bled Sir Walter Scott.
It will be seen from the foregoing
sketch that in point of fearlessness and
determination Of purpose Cobbett was
tile peer of Mr.. O'Brien, but critics
agree OH the fact that he did not pos
sess ability equal to that OF the talented
edition Of United Ireland. Besides MI. |
O'Brien is one Of the most amiable of
men, while Goblet was the exact re-
verse.
